No because it is your coin, I just saw the thread. Great find! I would say just keep it the way it is, don't get it conserved, good luck!!

One heck of a score! Added bonus being the reverse of 38.

Hey all, the coin just came back from NGC. I am happy with the results especially knowing this coin was in a 2x2 in a flea market sale box 2 months ago. I appreciate all of you and the help you all provided with properly identifing this rare variety.
